City won’t back plans for new art gallery Mayor says Burnaby already does a great deal for the arts, but decision leaves arts council ‘devastated’ Tereza Verenca

The City of Burnaby cares about art, according to Mayor Derek Corrigan – despite the city rejecting calls for a new gallery for more than three decades.

At Monday night’s meeting, council passed a staff report that does not support a new exhibition space as requested by the Burnaby Arts Council. The organization has long argued the city’s current gallery facilities – the arts

Death, Taxes and probate fees in BC:

Leave more assets to your heirs, not the Government. Anyone who has considered having a Will prepared or who has suffered a family loss have been forced to consider the legal process of Probate. Many people do not know what it is and fewer still know that through relatively simple planning the impact of Probate on you and your family can be reduced or eliminated entirely. Probate Probate is an approval process administered by The Supreme Court of British Columbia that validates your will and confirms the appointment of your Executor (the person you put in charge of your will). Without Probate your Executor can hit a wall. Imagine your Executor contacting banks or your pension plan provider, asking them to hand over your money. Obviously, those institutions would want proof that you had died, that the will is valid, that the Executor is the person named in your Will and that they won’t be sued if the Will is contested. Under British Columbia Law for your Executor to begin dealing with your assets upon your death they must first apply to the Court for a Representation Grant of Probate that provides authority to your Executor(s) to wind up the affairs of the deceased. The application process is a maze of required forms, official searches and legal jargon which overwhelm the most sophisticated people. The process often takes weeks, if not months to navigate and, once approved, requires the estate to pay a provincial tax of 1.4% of the estate’s value (probate fees). With the advice and assistance of an experienced Lawyer, the maze can be navigated swiftly and economically. Reducing Probate Through the timely advice and careful planning with a Lawyer it is possible to reduce or eliminate the requirement for Probate entirely saving your family time, stress and money. Miller Law is ready, willing and able to assist you in navigating the maze either through preplanning or in the event of a family loss.

Students test their mettle at ﬁre academy Burnaby Fire Department hopes youth program will introduce firefighting to kids from all backgrounds Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

There’s no question, sticking your face into an oxygen mask and plunging into a smoked-out building on a hot summer day wearing about 50 pounds of gear gets claustrophobic – even for firefighters. “Everybody has a little bit of that inside of them,” acting Burnaby Fire Department captain Ian Heatherington told the NOW. “It’s unnatural; it’s kind of like being under water.” Getting past that natural aversion was just one of the challenges he and the rest of the fire department’s training division set for 13 teens attending its first-ever youth academy last week. From July 4 to 7, the youths got a chance to try their hands at all kinds of unnatural experiences, including descending a 70-

foot tower, climbing a 100foot ladder, cutting up a car using the jaws of life, handling hydrants and hoses, and, of course, putting out fires. “We challenged them and then we watched them go. No disappointments at all,” Heatherington said. By the end, students had also earned Level C first aid certification. “It’s really cool,” said Burnaby Mountain Secondary student Nolan Andrey, who plans to be a firefighter one day. “It’s stuff I’ve always wanted to do.” Zahra Samimi, who just graduated from Byrne Creek and has attended the Vancouver Police Department’s youth academy twice, said the fire academy was a lot more challenging – and that was a good thing. “It’s going to let us know how difficult it’s going to be, and it’s going to help us to decide for our future too,”

she said. “It’s easier for us to make our decision for our career.” The four-day academy, which was free for the youth, cost about $25,000 to put on, according to deputy fire Chief Darcey O’Riordan, who championed the idea, but some of that money was for equipment, like steel-toed boots and coveralls, that will be used again in future camps. The teens, 11 boys and two girls, were tapped by career counsellors at Burnaby schools. For the inaugural camp, the district only had a matter of weeks to identify recruits, according to career transition programs consultant Paul Arthur, but in the future the district will make it clear the academy is an opportunity for all Burnaby students, he said. “Burnaby school district career educators will endeavour to ensure all students understand the opportunities for a career with the City of Burnaby Fire Department and encourage those with a passion and interest to apply to participate in the outreach academy,” wrote Arthur in an emailed statement. Encouraging a more diverse set of people to consider firefighting as a career is one of the main objectives of the camp, according to Burnaby fire Chief Joe Robertson. “It’s a chance for us to provide an opportunity for kids from a wide variety of backgrounds to look at firefighting,” he said. Women have been especially tough to attract to the service, according to the chief. The fire department currently has only eight female firefighters out of 270. “We want to better reflect the community we serve,” Robertson said. While firefighting remains a physical job, the nature of the work is changing, said the chief. More than 60 per cent of the calls firefighters respond to now are medical calls, he said, and even fighting fires and rescuing people from burning buildings is a team effort. “There is that mindset of the macho firefighter, and is that what we want people to think of us as?” Robertson said. “I’m sure there’s big,

tough firefighters that would want to keep that idea going, but the fire service is changing.” First-year firefighter Amy Tai said she wishes her hometown of Victoria would have had a youth academy when she was in high school.

“I honestly never even thought about it out of school,” she said of her current career. She only started considering becoming a firefighter after three summers fighting wildfires for the B.C.Wildfire Service while she was at university.

“I think it just gives them more options,”Tai said of the girls at the youth academy. “It just increases the awareness that it’s not just a guy’s thing.” Whether she becomes a police officer or a firefighter, Samimi, who came to Canada from Afghanistan four

years ago, is ready to challenge the idea some jobs aren’t for girls. “There is this stereotype – even my mom believes in that – that girls are not good enough for firefighting or being in a dangerous environment, but boys and girls are equal,” she said.

Burnaby MP backs Singh for NDP leadership Tereza Verenca

tverenca@burnabynow.com

Burnaby South MP Kennedy Stewart has thrown his support behind an Ontario politician who’s looking to become the next leader of the federal NDP. Stewart has endorsed Jagmeet Singh, one of four candidates running to replace Tom Mulcair. The announcement comes less than a week after New Democrat Peter Julian, MP for New WestminsterBurnaby, decided to drop out of the leadership race because his team couldn’t bring in enough donations. “I really think we need to shake things up in Ottawa and especially within our party, and I think Jagmeet is the one to do it,” Stewart told the NOW. The MP cited a few reasons for supporting Singh, including that he belongs to a visible minority. “After you sit in Parliament for six years, you realize that it’s still, despite some moves for-

ward, a place for middleclass, straight, white males. And only 26 per cent of the House of Commons is women,” Stewart said. “We’ve never had a leader of a national political party from a visible minority community. Burnaby, 60 per cent of the population of my riding, is from visible minority communities and I

Besides all of his other qualities, the symbolism is very, very important

just think, besides all of his other qualities, the symbolism is very, very important.” Another reason Stewart is supporting Singh’s leadership bid is because of his opposing stance on Kinder Morgan’s proposed Trans Mountain expansion project. (Stewart has been a longtime pipeline critic.)

Though the project has received federal approval, Kinder Morgan faces many legal challenges made by First Nations groups, who say they weren’t properly consulted. In a policy paper titled Fairness for Indigenous Communities,Workers and Families, Singh refers to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and says it must be respected. “Canada must obtain the free, prior and informed consent of Indigenous peoples before adopting and implementing legislative or administrative measures that may affect them,” the document reads. Singh was in town on the weekend and was toured around by the local MP. “I showed him the tanks farms. I showed him how close it was to SFU and the Forest Grove (neighbourhood),” said Stewart. “I think any national politicians who come and see, they can’t believe it.” As for Julian, Stewart said

he kept in touch with him throughout his leadership run. “I’m very supportive of Peter.We work very, very well together.” The timing of the endorsement was somewhat

strategic, Stewart added. “It was in the sense that I want to help Jagmeet sign up members.The membership cut-off is around midAugust and that’s a big part of the leadership campaign,” he said, noting “it feels real-

ly good out there.” “I mean every event I go to with (Jagmeet), he’s just swarmed, so that’s pretty cool.” New Democrats will choose their new leader in October.

Burnaby man injured in stabbing A Burnaby man suffered stab wounds after he was attacked near the New Westminster SkyTrain station on June 25. The attack was one of two stabbings that day. The first incident happened around 9:30 p.m. near the bus loop at Eighth and Columbia streets. Police allege the suspect approached the Burnaby man,

started talking to him and then stabbed him.The suspect fled the scene, and the victim was taken to hospital, according to a press release from the New Westminster Police Department. Twenty minutes later, officers were called to the 700 block of Columbia Street following a second stabbing – this time the victim was a Surrey man. A suspect was

arrested at the scene. Investigators believe the same man committed both attacks, according to the release. The victims were taken to hospital with non-lifethreatening injuries. Two counts of assault with a weapon and two counts of assault causing bodily harm have been laid against 35-year-old Jona-

than Rex Jennings of New Westminster. Jennings remains in custody at this time. His next court appearance is scheduled for today (July 12). Police are asking anyone who may have witnessed the attacks and not yet spoken with investigators to call the non-emergency line at 604525-5411. – Cayley Dobie

Opinion now OUR VIEW

New art gallery is a missed opportunity

There’s something ironic about the fact that we’re having an argument about the need for public spending on the arts in the same edition in which we’re celebrating the 50th anniversary of Burnaby Art Gallery. But city council’s decision to close the door on a new art gallery leaves us with no choice but to hammer home, yet again, how Burnaby is missing an in-

credible opportunity to become a true leader in arts and culture. That the mayor can write off the need for a new gallery by arguing that the city already spends money on the arts – we have eco-sculptures and public art, after all – just makes us shake our heads and sigh. The whole argument is a reflection of the North American mindset that still

views arts as a “frill.”The same people who don’t question spending millions of dollars on arenas and pools are quick to object to any spending at all on galleries. It’s a mindset that doesn’t fly in parts of the world where “culture” plays a much bigger role in the life of cities.We can’t quite see Parisians saying: “Oh, we don’t really need the Lou-

vre; we have the Eiffel Tower out there for everyone to enjoy anyway.” Yes, yes, we know: Burnaby isn’t Paris. But as long as this run-a-tight-ship, pro-development-but-only-if-it’sthe-deveopment-we-want council remains in charge, it’s not likely to move any closer to being so. And that’s too bad. We’re not criticizing the work of this city’s arts com-

munity.The Burnaby Art Gallery, the Burnaby Arts Council and many other individuals and organizations do incredible work with the resources they have. But a heritage home like Ceperley House – albeit one that has had technical upgrades – and the small bungalow that houses the arts council’s Deer Lake Gallery are no replacement for a modern facility.

Imagine a real gallery that could better host and display some of the city’s impressive permanent art collection – and draw locals and visitors alike to the city for an irreplaceable cultural experience. Or maybe you should just imagine more highrises and hockey rinks. Because, let’s face it, with this council in charge, that’s all you’re going to get.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Are Clark’s days numbered? As Premier Christy Clark begins her reluctant transition to Opposition, questions about how long she can last as B.C. Liberal Party leader are beginning to mount. It’s not clear yet how much enthusiasm she will bring to her new role. If there is not a lot on display when the legislature resumes sitting in September, that may indicate she’s prepared to step down in the coming months. Certainly, Clark seemed flat and deflated when she faced the media on two occasions the day and evening that Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon declined Clark’s request to dissolve the legislature rather than give B.C. NDP leader John Horgan the chance to test the confidence of the house. But, after a few weeks walking a beach somewhere in August, Clark may well regain her energy and opt to lead her disappointed troops into political battle come the fall. However, the longer the NDP-Green alliance can maintain power in the legislature, the weaker Clark’s grip on the party leadership will likely become. There seems to be a good chance the new government could last at least until the fall of 2018, which means Clark would be Opposition leader for almost a-year-and-a-half. It’s hard not to believe that by next spring some knives will start being unsheathed in the B.C. Liberal tent. Could she push back

against any kind of revolt? And will she want to? Clark’s key asset, for the moment anyway, is the apparent support the new B.C. Liberal caucus has for her leadership. I doubt whether any sitting member of the B.C. Liberal caucus will voice anything but 100 per cent support for Clark’s leadership in the weeks ahead. But will that still be the case come, say, next summer? All it will take for a leadership crisis to emerge will be for one or two B.C. Liberal MLAs to start grumbling publicly about the state of the party or of Clark’s leadership and her support could come crashing down like a house of cards. But we’re not at that point yet.Two recent polls (by Ipsos-Reid and Angus Reid) already show the B.C. Liberals have regained an edge in popularity over the NDP. “If this is as bad as it’s going to be for us, I’ll take it,” one B.C. Liberal MLA recently told me.That’s the glass half-full attitude that seems to be ruling the day in the party caucus right now. But as the weeks and months go by, we’ll see if that attitude shifts to one of the glass being halfempty. And if that happens, it could be fatal to Clark’s potential hopes of being the “comeback kid” yet again. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Cello can’t escape thieves

A $1,200 cello survived a house fire in March only to be stolen from the burned out building within 24 hours. The instrument’s owner, one of four students who had been renting the Cambridge Street house, had been delighted to find her cello had survived the blaze when a fire marshal briefly let them into the building to gather essential belongings. She had set it on her bed to get later, she said, but when the students came back, the cello was gone along with a laptop, various other electronics and a jars of coins.

Body recovered from Fraser River Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A body recovered from the Fraser River by Vancouver police last Thursday afternoon is not that of a Burnaby woman whose husband and son were found dead by the river in May. Police were notified of the body by a tugboat operator

who found it in a log boom on the north arm of the Fraser near the end of Kerr Street just west of Burnaby. The VPD’s marine unit recovered the body and contacted the coroner at about 4:35 p.m., according to B.C. Coroners Service spokesperson Barb McLintock. An investigation into the body’s identity and cause

of death is still in the preliminary stages, she told the NOW, but it appears to be that of a young adult male who has probably been dead for weeks. The body was recovered just upstream from Mitchell Island, where the submerged car of a missing Burnaby family was found on May 9. The father, Ming Dong

Xu, and four-year-old son, Garrick, were found dead at the scene, but the mother,Yu Ling Zhang, was never found. Foul play was not suspected, according to police. “We think we know who it is,” McLintock said of the body recovered Thursday, “but it’s not at all related to that case.”

Vehicle veered off forest road and down embankment Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A 31-year-old Burnaby man is dead after a singlevehicle crash in the Shuswap region on July 2. At about 6:30 p.m. on that day, Chase RCMP were called to a single-vehicle crash at the 38-kilometre marker of the Seymour Main Forest Service Road near Seymour Arm, which is about 150 kilometres northeast of Kamloops. Upon arrival, officers determined four occupants had been in a vehicle that veered off the forest service road and rolled several feet down an embankment before coming to rest against trees on the bank. “Information from witnesses at the scene lead police to believe alcohol and speed may have been factors in the crash,” states an RCMP press release. A 31-year-old Burnaby man died in the vehicle, while the three other occupants were taken to hospital with minor injuries, according to police. No names have been re-

leased. The crash is being investi-

gated by the RCMP and the B.C. Coroners Service.

City now Mayor: ‘The reality is it would always be something less’ Continued from page 1 have to go and find it. ... I think that sometimes we forget how much is being done on a daily basis to ensure that the arts are part of what Burnaby does.” With a new $350-million art gallery in the works in the City ofVancouver, Corrigan said competing with a neighbouring facility that is 20 minutes by SkyTrain would be “impossible.” “The reality is it would always be something less; it would always be something small; it would always be something that really couldn’t draw the kind of audiences that are going to a facility like the one planned forVancouver.” City staff looked at the arts council’s proposal “seriously,” Corrigan added. “In the long run, I believe the best choice we could make is try and get that events centre,” he said of a new events and performance centre planned for Metrotown. “(It) would allow us to be able to host events that we can contemplate are appropriate for our size as opposed to hav-

ing aspirations to construct a building that could very well end up a white elephant for us, something that we’re unable to sustain and we’re unable to look after.” The staff report states a new art gallery does not fall within established city policies, including the city’s 1990 arts policy, social sustainability strategy and economic development strategy. Burnaby Arts Council president David Handelman and members Maria Parolin and Mike Suk appeared before council on Monday night to discuss the report. Parolin was cut off at the 10-minute mark, and she and Suk couldn’t finish their part of the presentation, which concluded by asking council to form a committee to look at the arts policy and update it. “Give them five more (minutes),” yelled someone from the crowd. “We’re the people, not you.” Corrigan moved on to the next delegation and about 15 people from the arts council got up and left the chambers. “We’re devastated,” Paro-

lin told the NOW after. “It’s hard to know that your city wants nothing to do with culture.”

Handelman noted the last time he presented on the issue, he was given 30 minutes. “I’m not sure what to

say. I wasn’t expecting to be cut off so quickly. I’m disappointed. I would have thought if there was a major

concern about the time, we would have been told to get right to the finish.We could have done that,” he said.

Rallying for a cause: A group of arts activists are seen here in a photo from the fall of 2015, when they were renewing their push for a new art gallery in Burnaby – a request just denied by city council. The group includes Irene McCutcheon, front and centre, with (from left) Joseph Therrien, Brian Daniel, Bill Thomson, David Handelman, Farhad Amini and Marlene Daniel. PHOTO NOW FILES

Fifty years of footsteps through the gallery Janaya Fuller-Evans

To some, the Burnaby Art Gallery is a mystery. Perched near Deer Lake and surrounded by lush gardens, the heritage home known as Ceperley House – originally Fairacres – has always been the subject of much interest. But it is not a mystery to Polly Svangtun, one of the early members of the Burnaby Art Society. “We kept pushing for an art gallery and finally we got the place where we are now, Ceperley House,” she says of the society. “And we saw it after the squatters were thrown out and before everything was cleaned up.” Svangtun joined the society when a friend mentioned it to her, just as the members were beginning to look for a permanent location. In 1966, the society lobbied the City of Burnaby to purchase Ceperley House as a gallery space for the society.They were successful, and in 1967 the gallery became theirs.That is, once the frat boys moved out. Simon Fraser University’s Delta Upsilon Fraternity had been using Ceperley as a fraternity house since 1965.The members had abused it quite badly and protested their eviction with a bonfire. “They had lit a fire on the floor of the billiard room,” Svangtun says, adding it was up to the society to restore the heritage home. “The third floor had the most exotic paintings on the walls that you could imagine.” Ceperley House had to be renovated and repaired before the gallery could open. “I can remember spending a long time taking the white paint off the balustrade upstairs, which is a really beautiful wood,” she says. Today, the house is beautifully restored and still hosts events, such as the

Curator Ellen van Eijnsbergen and assistant curator Jennifer Cane recently met with the NOW to discuss the 50th anniversary and their time with the gallery. Van Eijnsbergen chose to work at the Burnaby Art Gallery because she was impressed with its reputation, but also, in part, because of the space itself. “One of the reasons I was drawn to this place is because it was a beautiful site, it’s a beautiful home, and

the gardens – it’s really a lovely place,” she says. Van Eijnsbergen came on as curator four years ago after working at the Evergreen Cultural Centre in Coquitlam. “The Burnaby Art Gallery is really well known within the metropolitan art community as a really, really good gallery as far as the types of exhibitions they do, publications, and 50 years of history, so it’s got a really solid, strong background,” she says. “And I’ve always really admired what they do at the gallery.” Cane agrees. “Not every local gallery has a collection, and the Continued on page 12

The Burnaby Art Gallery has given the city a sterling artistic reputation while also educating its citizens and branching out into the community. When it comes to sharing art with the city, the gallery has it in the BAG. SCHOOL PROGRAMS: The gallery will send instructors to classrooms and host fieldtrips. If a school cannot afford either of these options, the gallery also offers the BAG in a Box for a small fee.The box includes artwork that has been donated to the educational collection (and is framed and protected to withstand travel).The school programs have been running for 40 years.

OFF-SITE EXHIBITS: Art is also displayed in two Burnaby libraries – the Bob Prittie and McGill branches. Exhibit coordinator and preparatory Bob MacIntyre curates those exhibitions, which usually feature local and emerging artists. GALLERY TALKS AND TOURS: The gallery hosts talks and tours of the exhibits, with some led by the artists involved and others led by the curator or assistant curator.There is also a Tour and Tea series, with tea served in the Fireside Room. KIDS’ PROGRAMS: There are art project programs available for preschoolers and children, so long as their parents come

ADULT PROGRAMS: Kids aren’t the only ones having fun at the art camps, however.The gallery offers outdoor summer camps for grownups, too, along with classes and workshops within the gallery itself. FAMILY – IN THE BAG: Family Sundays is a free activity held on Sunday afternoons, where families can explore the exhibit and then take part in a familyfriendly art project. ABC Recycling is sponsoring it this year. ONLINE: The gallery’s collection can be viewed and explored online at collections. burnabyartgallery.ca.

Gallery’s collection holds more than 5,000 works Continued from page 11 collection is really large here, with more than 5,000 works,” Cane says. “And its specialization of works on paper is really unique. There’s nothing else like it in Canada.” Cane, who began working at the gallery as a student nine years ago, now manages the collection. The gallery’s publications also have a strong reputation, according to Cane, with the gallery’s annual catalogue going out to 125 libraries across Canada. The gallery has accumulated its collection through donations and a small acquisitions budget, according to van Eijnsbergen. Its mandate is to focus on works on paper, she adds, such as prints, photos, acrylics on paper and more. They acquire between 100 to 150 pieces for the collection each year, with about 10 purchased by the gallery. This summer’s exhibition showcases 50 works from the gallery’s collection. The exhibit takes its theme from the Ralph Waldo Emerson quote carved in the mantle of the billiard room, “The ornament of a house is the friends who frequent it.” Fifty friends of the gallery – including donors, artists

125 Celebration Stage at Humphries and Edmonds:

This year marks two special occasions it’s Burnaby’s 125th and Canada’s 150th birthday! We’re celebrating by spotlighting the creative talents of local performing artists.

Blackthorn

The Myrtle Family Band The Myrtle Family Band is a collaboration of professional and awardwinning East Vancouver inter-arts performers presenting high-quality music, theatre, clown and dance. They engage and delight audiences of all ages with their porch stompin’, washtub bass bouncing jug-time traditional jazz, their twinkling-tap numbers, and, of course, their unstoppable charm!

Blackthorn is a Vancouver-based folk group featuring four creative and talented musicians who share a love of Celtic music. Their repertoire is rooted in the musical traditions of Scotland and Ireland, as well as the folk music of English and French Canada. The results of their collective musical backgrounds and experience are evidenced in the high-calibre, entertaining performances they consistently deliver to audiences of all ages. From lively jigs and reels, to songs with rousing choruses and heart-wrenching airs and ballads, they bring the music to life with their luscious harmonies and complex instrumentation.

Stories on Wheels

Food

Stories on Wheels is an original street theatre storytelling act for the whole family. Tales are brought to life by a high-energy comic performer, using beautifully illustrated picture cards displayed in a magniﬁcent miniature wooden stage attached to the back of a unique bicycle. Inspired by a traditional Japanese travelling storytelling show popular in the 1920s through the 1950s called Kamishibai (literally “paper theatre”), the show combines the best of oral storytelling and narrative painting. Several short stories are told with dramatic action, sound effects and audience interaction. You’ve never been told a story this way, before!

Activites and Displays

Petting Zoo

After living on a farm for more than 10 years, Coun. Paul McDonell understands the joy of seeing and holding baby animals: that’s why he’s arranged for chicks, rabbits, goats and piglets to be at the fair. The animals this year come from the Aldor Acres Family Farm in Langley, including new babies and their mothers. “It’s cute to watch them. There’s baby ducks, piglets and baby goats, and the mothers are there,” he says. “Goats jump up on top of the bales of hay; the kids get a kick out of that.” McDonell lived on a farm in the ’70s and ’80s in Langley District, where he raised purebred heifers. “I always liked it in the spring when the newborns came. You get a nice crisp day in February when the sun was out, cows would be jumping around and bouncing, just having a gay ole’ time,” he says. Now children in Burnaby have a chance to see the animals too. “A lot of these kids are coming from places where they haven’t seen any farm animals,” McDonell says. As for what animals there will be, McDonell says the farmer brings in animals that have been born within the last few days. “He brings in (animals with) babies, newborns that are a few days old,” he says. “He likes to get them when they’re just a few days old so they’re small and cuddly, but they always have people inside (to supervise).” “It was a pretty big hit from day one, so we’ve been bringing them back ever since.” The animals are kept in a shaded pen with their mothers near Edmonds Street and Canada Way. Attendants will supervise the children and make sure the animals are safe.

Car Show

Start your engines, Burnaby. The annual Show and Shine car show is back at the fair this summer. Muscle cars, sleek convertibles, and low riders will be on display at the Show and Shine by Burnaby car enthusiasts. Show organizer Bonnie Game said she expects between 80 and 100 cars this year for the show at Linden Avenue and Edmonds Street, including a ’66 red Chevrolet Impala convertible with red and white leather interior. “They love to show off their cars,” says Game. “There are guys that go to every event if they can.” There are 11 entry categories this year, including street rods, muscle cars, low riders, restored cars and trucks 1957 and older, and imported British and Japanese vehicles. Participants will be competing for trophies and three cash prizes of $100, $200 and $300. Low riders are a popular category, a new addition to the show in the past couple years. These cars owners are typically younger than other owners, and they’re quite a hit. As for what the judges are looking for, Game says it’s all a matter of taste. For the Mayor’s Choice, Game says he has a difﬁcult time choosing a winner. “He’s got an eye for cars, but he doesn’t choose the same type of car every time,” she says. “Everybody keeps their cars in

pristine condition and they sparkle in the sun.” Game, who has been organizing the show for the last six years, can appreciate a nice set of wheels. She owns a ’70 red Camaro she purchased from a friend, and says she always keeps it shiny. While she says she can’t choose a favourite car, Game has a soft spot for convertibles. “(Chevrolet’s) Spike convertible the Chevelle is really spectacular. They seem to be the winners,” she says. Elvis and Marilyn impersonators will also be performing. The car show will be located at Linden Avenue and Edmonds Street. Participants can register in person between 8 and 10 a.m. on Saturday or online. Winners will be announced at 2:30 p.m. Admission is free.

cdobie@burnabynow.com

Music lovers rejoice, the Summer Sunday Concert Series is back at Civic Square. The series runs every Sunday from now until Aug. 27 (except Aug. 6) and is completely free.The concerts get underway at 6 p.m. and usually feature two performances, wrapping up around 8 p.m. This Sunday, catch Iranian instrumental trio Diba from 6 to 6:45 p.m. Diba is a Vancouver ensemble featuring Mohammadreza (Aref) Bolandnazar, Anoushirvan Ghadimi, Hossein Meimani, Mohammad Seyyedi, and Peyman Rouhandeh.

summer they’re playing ahead of the release of the second album Hand-MeDown Centuries, coming July 28. For more information, go to tinyurl.com/bbysundays.

INDIAN SUMMER IN BURNABY It’s an experience not many people take part in, but it’s one the Indian Summer Festival wants to share with the community. Celebrated sitarist Mohamed Assani will perform Morning Ragas at the Ismaili Centre Burnaby on Saturday, July 15 from 10:30 a.m. to noon. Indian music dictates that ragas, meaning modes or melodies, must be played at specific times of the day and night to capture the “height of its melodic beauty,” according to a press release. “Since most concerts take place in the evening, audiences rarely have a chance to listen to morning ragas, thus missing out on a huge repertoire of outstanding compositions,” noted the release. Tickets are $35 for adults

($40 at the door) and $20 for kids ($25 at the door) between five and 12, and they include the concert and a breakfast. Kids under five get in free. The Ismaili Centre Burnaby is at 4010 Canada Way. For info and to buy tickets, go to www.indiansummer fest.ca/event/morning-raga.

DIVERCITY ON NOW Missed the second annual Park’s Edge Paint Off held at last weekend’s Summer Arts Festival? Never fear, you can check out the artists’ works at DiverCity, a new exhibition on now until Aug. 5 at the Deer Lake Art Gallery. DiverCity celebrates ethnicity, gender, age, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, education and religion, and features work by Farhad Amini, Flavia Chan, Alyx Essers, Honeytta Eyvany, Cas Fernandez, Jeremy Henrickson, Kristina Kosolova, Sonia Mocnik, Biranna Nilsson and Juan Vargo. This Saturday, July 15, stop by the gallery at 2 p.m. for an artist talk and dem-

onstration led by Henrickson. “Working with an array of mixed-media methods, Henrickson’s work awakens emotion and expression from the subject by utilizing intense colours and vibrant passages. His pieces emphasize modernity, light and energy,” read a release. “Acrylics, inks and found paper are layered throughout to reveal the inner life of a subject, while heavier opaques sheath surface to the forms. This combination is meant to model the harmony between the outer veneer and the inner life below.” The artist’s talk and gallery admission are free. Deer Lake Gallery is at 6584 Deer Lake Ave. For more information, call 604298-7322, email info@ burnabyartscouncil.org or go to www.burnaby artscouncil.org.The gallery is open Tuesday to Saturday from noon to 4 p.m. Send arts and entertainment items to Cayley at cdobie@burnabynow.com.

Student-designed device wins Samsung award Burnaby South students win $20,000 prize for innovation Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A device designed to help deaf and hard of hearing dancers feel a beat won a group of Burnaby South Secondary students $20,000 worth of technology for their school last month. The group of about 20 media arts students were named western region winners in Samsung Canada’s Solve for Tomorrow Challenge for a bracelet they designed that translates sounds into vibrations dancers can feel in their wrists.

They can actually feel the pulse and then they can be more accurate with their beat…

The idea came from media arts student Polina Petlitsyna, who had been in an integrated dance class with students from the B.C. Provincial School for the Deaf (BCSD), which shares a campus with Burnaby South. “They can actually feel the pulse and then they can be more accurate with their beat,” said dance teacher Christina Wilson, whose alldeaf dance class tested the

device and performed for the project video created by media arts student Ky Kim. “I think it would shorten the amount of time it would take them to learn the timing. Really, in the end, they do learn the timing, and it’s all basically muscle memory.” Wilson said hearing students who struggle with timing could benefit from the device as well. To convert an audio beat into a tactile one, the students split the music source, with one part going to a regular speaker and another going to a sound board. After toning down the high and middle frequencies and boosting the low ones, the sound board then sends the signal to the tactile bracelet where it is felt as a vibration. As regional winners, the team earned Burnaby South $20,000 worth of equipment from Samsung, but media arts teacher Cam Strudwick said the school has yet to work out with the electronics company what equipment they’ll get. “Computers are always super useful to us,” he said. “It’s a constant struggle to keep up with the needs of technology.Technology moves so quickly.” For qualifying as finalists in the Solve for Tomorrow Challenge, Burnaby South had already received a 3D camera, virtual reality headset, tablet and phone to use in the final round. “They’re fancy toys that we wouldn’t normally be able to afford with our limited budget,” Strudwick said.

Innovators: Above, from left, Christina Wilson (dance teacher), Vania Zaharieva-Alexieva (media arts teacher), Duc An Nguyen, Ky Kim, Cam Strudwick (media arts teacher), Polina Petlitsyna, Maria Boloseno, Justus Loeffler, Edmon Cruz, Isaac Mocharski and Mirza Kuluglic. Below, B.C. Provincial School for the Deaf dancers demonstrate the team’s winning invention. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

“It can be difficult to keep up, but kids are more engaged if they have new technology.” Students who worked on the project are keen to move it forward, he said, and parts have been ordered to “flesh out” the prototype next school year. Since Samsung makes smart watches, the group could also request one of those as part of the prize and consider working on an app instead of continuing with the hardware.

Fallen mate inspires cycle team

Loses rookie rider to training accident in N.B. Mario Bartel

In a sport where competitors try to save every gram of weight they can, the women of The Cyclery-4iiii cycling team will be carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders when they speed around The Heights in Thursday’s Giro di Burnaby. Last December, the team lost one of its own in a traffic accident. Ellen Watters was about to graduate from the amateur junior development team to her first pro contract when she was struck by a car while on a training ride in New Brunswick. Jenny Trew,The Cyclery-4iiii’s manager and coach, said Watters’ death hit hard. “We have often used the phrase ‘cycling family,’ and it truly does feel like we have lost a member of our family,”Trew said. “She was an exceptionally bright light and I’m not sure it makes sense to anyone that she isn’t with us any longer.” Trew said coming to B.C. Superweek has been especially difficult for the team as Watters loved racing in the week-long series of races around Metro Vancouver, and she thrived in the criterium style of racing like the Giro. And a new event in New Westminster would have given her the chance to race in front of her sister, who lives right near the course. “She loved this week of racing.The criteri-

um was a great race for her, wanting to hit out attack after attack,”Trew said. “We all have many memories of Ellen – both on and off the bike – rooted here.” Trew said the team has pulled together and drawn strength from Watters’ memory as they barnstorm the North American racing circuit. Their kit features a white band with “RIDE ON LNH20” (LN for Ellen, H2O for Watters) on the sleeve. Some members have affixed stickers of Watters’ signature to their bikes.

But more importantly,Trew said, they try to race in a way that would have made Watters proud. “Her style of racing was everything that our team is about, and each girl has honoured Ellen at different times this year by attacking and supporting their teammates selflessly,”Trew said. “She was a binding force during her lifetime, and the love she gave each of us will continue to bond for many years to come.” Continued on page 25

Giro set to go What: The Giro di Burnaby is one of nine races during the B.C. Superweek cycling series. This is the 10th Giro. The first one was in 2006 but the criterium was not run in 2009 and 2010 due to lack of sponsorship before returning in 2011. Where: Cyclists will loop around a 1.14-kilometre closed circuit course in the Burnaby Heights neighbourhood on Hastings and Albert streets between MacDonald and Madison avenues. When: Thursday, July 13. Race times: 5:30 p.m. – youth (12-minutes plus two laps); 6 p.m. – women’s pro (40 laps); 7:15 p.m. – men’s pro (50 laps); 8:30 – awards presentation. Purse: $15,000 split evenly between the men’s and women’s races with $2,600 going to each winner. Extras: Bike valet service available in the parking area on the west side of Madison, south of Hastings, from 3:30 to 9 p.m; beer garden opens at 6 p.m. at Madison and Hastings. Competitors: More than 200 cyclists have signed up for Superweek. The 2016 Giro winners were Australians Scott Law, who finished third in the Delta criterium Sunday, and Kimberley Wells. In 2015, it was a couple of Californian cyclists who took the titles – Daniel Holloway of Morgan Hill and Shelley Olds from Gilroy.

First year of ﬁve-year Jr. Lakers plan complete Grant Granger

ggranger@burnabynow.com

The Burnaby Jr. Lakers’ 2017 B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League regular season came to a conclusion in familiar fashion Friday. For the seventh consecutive season, the Lakers will be post-season spectators and not participants.They finished in sixth place in the eight-team league with a 4-16-1 record after a 12-3 loss to the hometown Port Coquitlam Saints.The Lakers also finished the season with a nine-game losing streak. Although only one spot out of the playoff picture, they weren’t even close. Burnaby’s nine points were 15 behind the two teams ahead of them,Victoria and Lang-

ley (12-9-0). Despite the record, Lakers general manager Jaimie Scott felt the season was successful because the team was so young. “Out of the 25 guys signed we had 15 either first-year juniors or still had intermediate age eligibility.We went young this year.We’re building for the future,” said Scott. Having said that, Scott was exasperated his young troops left seven points on the floor against the two teams below the Lakers in the standings, Delta and Nanaimo. While the seven points would not have put them into the playoffs, winning those games would have been beneficial to the team’s confidence, he said. Scott likes the potential of goal-

ie Elijah Uema-Martin, who has three years of junior left and performed well in his baptism by fire this season. “He’s a stopper.There’s reaction goaltenders, and there’s just plain stoppers, and Bear, that’s his nickname, is a stopper. He lets the ball hit him, he doesn’t panic, he makes big saves,” said Scott. Offensively, he’s pumped about left-hander Dylan Kaminsky, who had 21 goals and 12 assists in 10 games before getting injured. “He can power his way through the middle.” Mason Pomeroy was the team’s top scorer for the season with 27 goals and 28 assists. His 55 points put him 16th in league scoring.

“He’s taken huge steps from last year to this year. I expect him to take another huge step next year,” said Scott. Scott expects himself and the coaching staff, headed by Jason Dallavalle, to be back next year to continue working on the long-term rebuild project for a team that has fallen on hard times, and that used to dominate the BCJALL winning 12 consecutive league titles from 1996 to 2007. “The coaching staff have done an amazing job keeping the motivation up,” said Scott. “It’s a fiveyear plan.We have a five-year plan that we’re just in year one really. We see improvement.We see enthusiasm.We see they’re not quit-

ters.We see they don’t quit. Even if we’re down by five, they’ll scratch and crawl their way back to tie the game or winning the game.” The Lakers will lose five players to graduation, but Scott said there are more talented kids on their way from the intermediate and midget ranks. “I’m always looking to improve.” Kurtis Shum, Parker Johnson and Kyle Durec scored Burnaby’s goals Friday. Uema-Martin made 40 saves. Victoria Shamrocks edged LangleyThunder 8-7 in a wild-card game Sunday and will play firstplace Coquitlam Adanacs (20-1-0) in a best-of-five semifinal.The other semi will see second-place New Westminster Salmonbellies (16-50) playing PoCo (13-8-0).

Team bonding

Lakers drown Salmonbellies in showdown

Continued from page 24 That bond can be especially important in the hardscrabble existence of bike racers in North America, far from the glory and glamour of the world tour. Prize money is scant and riders often bunk with local billets. Most of Trew’s riders weave training and racing through jobs or school, or even both. “Cycling for women is truly a labour of love at all levels,”Trew said. “It requires that the women have exceptional time management skills to excel.The travel can be hard, but working within a strong team allows the girls to enjoy many jokes and see fun places.We seem to take a lot of detours to donut shops across the continent.” The team’s cohesion and ability to work together will be tested at the Giro.The flat, fast circuit means the bulk of the peloton will likely still be together for a massive bunch sprint to the finish, so the team that can create a strong lead-out train for their sprinter will be rewarded at the line. “We are here to race and to podium this week,”Trew said. “It will be a tough ask, but the girls are up for it.”

Bailey changes coasts

Former Burnaby Mountain Lions hoop star Jacey Bailey has transferred from the Florida Atlantic University Owls to the Northern Arizona University Lumberjacks. In her first season of NCAA Division 1 competition, the six-foot Bailey started 15 games and played in all 29 games for the Owls. She averaged 17.8 minutes, 4.3 points and 2.7 points per game while shooting 32.9 per cent from the floor. FAU is based in Boca Raton and plays in Conference USA while Northern Arizona is in Flagstaff and plays in the Big Sky Conference. According to her father, Kingsley, Bailey transferred to be in the same time zone as her family, and the opportunity to play next season for a team with a good chance to make the NCAA women’s championship tournament.

It’s getting crowded at the top and the Burnaby Lakers are right in the middle of all the fun. The Lakers downed the New Westminster Salmonbellies 13-6 at Bill Copeland Arena last Friday. The win gives them an 8-3-1 Western Lacrosse Association record. It puts them tied in points with the Victoria Shamrocks (8-4-1), one behind the Maple Ridge Burrards (94-0). Burnaby, however, has played one fewer game than the other two. Against the fourth-place ’Bellies (6-5-1), the Lakers had control of the scoreboard all game long with period leads of 4-2 and 10-5 despite being outshot 23-14 in the second period. Justin Salt scored three goals while Robert Church and Eli McLaughlin scored two goals and two assists. Jason Jones also had a four-point night with a goal and three helpers. Other Burnaby goals were scored by Josh Byrne, Cam Milligan, Josh Sulivan, Ilija Gajic and Dane Stevens. Eric Penney made 48 saves to record the win. Burnaby and New West will play a rematch at Queen’s Park Arena on Thursday (7:45 p.m.).
